Controversy is swirling over women’s beach volleyball at the Olympics, and it has nothing to do with the actual competition.
The best Olympic uniforms for the Summer 2024 games include kits from Ralph Lauren, Puma, J. Lindeberg, Lululemon, and many more.
When the ladies hit the sand for some stiff competition in volleyball, they were doing so in some new threads.
Match after match showed that the days of traditional skimpy bikinis were over, as players were rocking supportive athletic gear, such as sports bras and yoga pants.
The new threads eliminated the likelihood of a wardrobe malfunction or camera angles having women with their butts hanging out of their bottoms as they jumped around in the sand for some competitive volleyball.
A lot of people praised this new look:
Congratulations to the female athletes who fought so hard to be able to wear pants while they play beach volleyball. And into all the creepers who are disappointed…gross. Go away. They didn’t want you watching anyway. #OlympicGames pic.twitter.com/P1B7FzI0tq

However, not everybody was thrilled to see the new threads. Many couldn’t believe they waited four years to see women scantily clad only to find out they were all covered up.
